I hope it looks better on you than it does on the table
it looks so flatWhat don’t you like?

thank you. thank you. i'll be here all week. don't forget to tip your waitress.
in a moto-style it wouldn't be too bad. i've never been too big of a fan of the short jacket style but if it looks good on you then go for it
He’s going to face some tough business decisions soon - cut off orders at a certain cap, take orders from the weirdos who are willing to wait a few years for a jacket, jack up prices to reduce demand or bring on other staff to help with production.
not a fan of that car coat. weird lines and button holes. the cafe is fantastic but you really need a particular body type to pull of the look. plus those zipper pulls are hideous.Just a cool pic of Aero’s Rockefeller car coat and Field’s cafe racer:

I dig the car coat, but in a different leather. Definitely a Fight Club seventies look that isn’t really for me - but I like it. Looks a bit more subtle in black goat here:not a fan of that car coat. weird lines and button holes. the cafe is fantastic but you really need a particular body type to pull of the look. plus those zipper pulls are hideous.
yeah not quite as 70's looking in the black but i think i like the brown better. if you're going to go for the look why not go all the way?I dig the car coat, but in a different leather.

I’d say I have a cafe racer body. Most places put the leather ties on the zips to help when wearing gloves, but they are easy to take off.

Agree with all of this.not a fan of that car coat. weird lines and button holes. the cafe is fantastic but you really need a particular body type to pull of the look. plus those zipper pulls are hideous.
Agree with all of this.
My only other gripe is the vertical lower pockets look off somehow. I have a cafe racer which I haven’t worn in a while and I can’t remember how the lower pockets are! Probably angled but I’m away from home now so can’t check!
Not my field, but I like this one, pretty old fashioned.Agreed. I really dig it, but it’s not my style.
It’s actually based on a 1930s Levi’s leather jacket. Here is is in a russet Vicenza pigment dyed horsehide:

Quite like the look of that one DB.
How many leathers do you have now? Seems like you’re amassing a bit of a collection but since the world seems to be aiming at ever more casual outfits there are a lot worse paths to take than a decent looking leather jacket, chinos/jeans/cavalry twills and chelseas / desert boots / military style lace up boots. Something akin to McQueen’s Great Escape gear. Miles away from the hoody and sweat pants discussed on the other thread.
Jacket looks amazing. Pity leather jackets look like shit on me. Why is he wearing a mask for selfies?
Some crafty eBaying here. Used CHP police jacket (may not be true surplus, since it doesn’t have a badge holder) meets a ladies fur coat.

Did you do it yourself, or had someone do it?

The Horween Bison on my SB is 5 ounce.Dude in a 5.5oz leather jacket! This is heavy heavy boot leather or thicker! My thickest, heaviest jacket I’ve owned was 4oz and that felt like armour. The two I have now are 2.5oz medium and 3.5oz as my heavyweight jacket.
